dc.description.abstractTeratomas originate from the 3 germ layers, the endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm, with varying rates of involvement. Congenital teratoma, observed in approximately 1:20.000-40.000 live births, are very rarely located in the area of the head and neck and the majority are benign malformations. The main cause of morbidity and mortality from cervical teratoma is the tumor size and its compression of the airway. This pathology may require emergency intervention postpartum and if not treated mortality-morbidity may be high. As a result prenatal diagnosis and monitoring is very important. Here we present the case of a cervical teratoma, prenatally diagnosed on 2- and 3-D (dimensional) ultrasound, which required an emergency operation postpartum due to development of respiratory distress.
